Wind in the Wheat Cowl

Isn't it amazing what can be done with one little skein of sock yarn? Light, gentle and easy on the hands, sock yarn works for everything from sweaters to gossamer shawls. And let's face it...there are those skeins that are too pretty to bury beneath pants and shoes. They need to be seen, front and center. If you've got an interesting skein kicking around, this is your chance! Here's a simple, quick cowl with a lacy stitch pattern. It's fun to knit with self-striping yarn but would be equally pretty in a solid or tonal.
